$3 Million Verdict
I obtained a $3 million jury verdict in the United States District Court for a police officer and union president that was retaliated against and falsely arrested by his department. After a two-week trial, the jury determined that the defendants maliciously violated my client's constitutional rights and awarded punitive damages in addition to compensatory damages.
$500,000 Settlement
I obtained a $500,000 settlement in a First Amendment retaliation case in the United States District Court. The client was a police officer that was retaliated against by his department for opposing corrupt and discriminatory police practices in his department. After extensive discovery and just prior to trial and jury selection, the defendants agreed to settle the case.
